Three Low Noise Amplifiers

September 16, 2013

WanTcomLNAs-PRphotoRichardson RFPD, Inc. introduces three new low noise amplifiers(LNAs) from WanTcom.

The new LNAs integrate WanTcom's proprietary low noise amplifier technologies, high frequency microelectronics assembly techniques, and high reliability design expertise to optimize noise figure, wideband operation, and high performance. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, including Aerospace and Defense, cellular infrastructure, test and measurement, and 32 MHz MRI applications.

The WHM0913R LNA operates from 900 to 1250 MHz, is fully-matched to 50 ohms, available in a standard 0.25” x 0.25” x 0.08” surface mount package, and is designed to meet rugged MIL-STD-883 standards.

The WBA0010A LNA operates from 10 to 1000 MHz, offers high linearity and exceptional gain flatness, is fully-matched to 50 ohms, has standard SMA-connectorized, WP-11 gold plated housing, and is designed to meet MIL-STD-202.

The WMA32C 32.19 MHz low noise pre-amplifier features 3.0 ohm input impedance, built-in ESD protection, and is offered in a 0.50” x 0.40” x 0.10” surface mount package.
